    Great game with no identity politics shoved in our faces and an evil company vice president as the developer! Couldn't have asked for anything better with all of the crappy other games that have come out recently, what a breath of fresh air. and don't worry, there's no golf clubs in this game just dope katana's and tanto's.

    Wow some stupid people review bombing this game with zero i think they are fans of Last of Us 2 or an xbox fanboy or just want to bring this game down.

Sucker Punch really did a fantastic job and to end the intro of the game is the best for me so far having a blast and i am 45 hours in!! Expand

    Ghost of TSUSHIMA is a gorgeous video game., there are tons of breathtaking landscapes and places, with an excellent and intriguing story and a very fun battle system. It's noteworthy that the frame rate is very stable, and there are few loading screens (I played this game on a playstation pro console, so I never saw a drop in frame rate or long loading screens).
    All in all, Ghost of

    All in all, Ghost of Tsushima is a must for every playstation 4 owner. Finally, I also have to remark its photo mode. Sometimes I spent a lot of time taking photographs here and there, since the world that SuckerPunch built is actually very beautiful, its cherry-trees, waterfalls, flowers, animals, everything in this game deserves to be immortalized in a photograph. So, go buy this game, take as much as pictures as you can, enjoy its story and have fun killing mongols in the 9th century.

    I love everything about the game. It is wonderful. The fights, the environment, the control mechanics, the story, side missions, upgrades and colors are perfect.

    The game has no issues to be addressed and it is better than all other historical open world games in the market.

    Ghosts of Tsushima is a beautiful and wonderful open world experience with tons of content. The story is interesting and engaging. I would recommend this game to anyone who is a fan of open world games like skyrim, the witcher 3, and assassins creed tho it is NOT an assassins creed clone . This game does alot of good things and almost never falls flat.. definitely a buy in my opinion

    I reviewed this game for Hindi speaking viewers. And from the get go, the game is the best representation of a Samurai game ever. The ambience, the Japanese dialog, the combat everything is worth buying the game. This is the best PS4 exclusive released this year. However, SP needs to fix the camera angle .

    The game is fantastic in terms of both graphics and the story. Love this game so much!!! For a person like me who is devoted to history, this is a game you cannot miss.

    For those negative reviews, the accounts were created recently which just gave TLOU 10 points. You know who are they and who hire them:)

    Splendid game. I have been thinking for some time after Seikiro, what if they made it into an open world game? I think this is the closest we will ever get. Amazing combat, stylish yet not too easy, but not as hard as Seikiro obviously. Beautiful graphics.

    This game is an absolute visual treat that also plays very well. The stealth isn't superb, but I barely want to use it anyway because swordplay is so well done. It has a good story that is masterfully presented, and the music is up there with gaming's best.

    This game was incredible. I was so disappointed with Last Of Us 2 so it was nice to get this game not long after. Ghost Of Tsushima was right on time and so refreshing.

    Amazing atmosphere, interesting plot,and good fighting,also attracted Japanese setting which is quite rare. Game very similar to assassin's creed but for me Tsushima even better, especially if we compere with last assassin's creed games

    Ghost of Tsushima takes the best elements of cherished games like Assassin's Creed and Far Cry and combines them into a magnificently-well written story.

    Ghost of Tsushima takes the best elements of cherished games like Assassin's Creed and Far Cry and combines them into a magnificently-well written story.

    I am practically 20 hours in the game and have barely just begun the second main story arc (out of 3). This is frankly the first open world game I've ever played where I am WILLINGLY exploring every inch of the island and playing all the side quests BEFORE the main story missions.

    The game does not cease to surprise me with new abilities and tools to use against new and adaptive foes, throughout the whole game. It feels as though the possibilities are truly endless.

    This game honestly revived gaming for me and took me back to a time where games were designed and meant to be FUN - a focus that has recently perplexingly become abandoned.

    2020 GOTY.

    La direction artistique est sublime, un excellent système de combat, un très bon scénario, ce jeux est redoutable adversaire pour The Last Of Us Part II au GOTY

    The best samurai game in a long time and a great fun for all, who love action. Love for Japan and its history is a big plus, but its knowledge is not necessary to enjoy every minute of this beautiful game. [Issue#305]

    Ghost of Tsushima is a flawed, but fun, game. While the gameplay itself was solid, and the story was decent, I definitely expected a lot more from Sony’s final PlayStation 4 exclusive. It had enough to keep me hooked, but lacked the polish we’ve all grown to love from a Sony first party game.

    Ultimately, it feels like the game could have benefited from a smaller scope or a more linear structure. Focus on the duels could have created a more engrossing product, especially if it honed in on the narrative for a more concise and cinematic experience. But as it stands, Ghost of Tsushima is another AAA open world title and doesn’t seek to define itself as anything other than that.
